Wireless HDMI 1080p at 60Hz
Wireless HDMI 1080p at 60Hz
I have an unusual scenario. We have two rooms separated by a concrete wall about 17cm thick. One side needs a monitor with wireless keyboard and mouse, the other holds a PC for web browsing, movies, and AutoCAD—no gaming. The PC shouldn’t share space with the peripherals due to room size. Wireless devices work well across the gap, but I need to send video from the PC to the monitor without an HDMI cable. Drilling through concrete isn’t ideal. PeakDo’s 60GHz solution won’t cut it because walls block that frequency. Are there any practical alternatives that could handle this setup?
I strongly suggest drilling a hole through the wall, even though drilling in concrete can be harmful. A thick wall makes it very difficult for signals to travel. Additionally, a wireless signal would introduce delays that aren’t ideal for precise tasks like CAD, though this depends on your specific needs.
It seems you're considering a few wireless display options. One possible choice is a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter, though its performance on solid surfaces isn't clear. MiraCast appears to be a solid alternative for basic web browsing, as many current TVs already include it.
It's a great idea overall. I'll consider it carefully. A few alternatives come to mind—placing the PC elsewhere in the room and using a mm-wave wireless HDMI extender like PeakDo could work well. Nyrius AERIS Prime is another option, though it's pricier. The main drawback with mm-waves is their sensitivity to disturbances like sneezing. MiraCast adapters don't fit the bill since they lack the reliability needed for live streams. Let me know what you think!
The main issue is WiFi interference. From the product page, it seems they likely operate on the same frequency bands as Wi-Fi, which is why it’s free for public use. Just ensure your router and transmitter are on different channels. Also, avoid placing any radar devices near your home since they can restrict access to 5GHz channels.
